Hi hannah.

The West End is the only hope for me too so I have fingers and toes crossed all goes well in Plymouth and Dublin!

I have thought of Mr McG when watching a few musicals. Would like to see him in full dancing mode in West Side Story so would prefer him not to play Tony but they could always add more Tony and Maria dances! Also thought of Seven Brides for Seven Brothers as some of the dancing was superb. In a few years even Skye Masterson in Guys and Dolls. All wishful thinking but I can dream!

Am wrestling with what dances I would like for KD and am still undecided so very pleased there is time to reply for Whiffle's list.

Cabin fever😂😂😂😂😂😉😉
What are you like DD

Thanks for the interview aswell. I've managed to hear it now.
And great it is too.
I just wondered what role Jay could do next. The producers thought he was great for BIG because he fit the premise of a boy/child in a man's body.
But what other roles are there out there. That's if he wanted to continue in MT.

I reckon. we could easily become his agents😜. There are some great ideas from the thread.
Your suggestions for MT are a good example
1) Lots of us would love a Jaliona Tour
2) Keep Dancing Tour--(The Monaco Leg would be good&#128522
3) SCD Launch Show Winners Dance
4) A guest spot on the SCD Live Tour
And so on and so on😆


I'm sure you can pick your dances. It's just such a chore having to watch them in order to pick isn't it😂

Our posts seem to have overlapped, hannah!

I just thought of Blood Brothers where some adults play the parts of children but it's fairly gritty and sombre and I prefer "happy" shows.

Listening to his chuckling though and his ability to do chipmunk voices, animation voice overs may also be a field he could succeed in.

Yes he could do voice overs for Disney while he was "visiting the 2 in LA." (Siva and Max I presume)
Oh how exciting. All these possibilities opening up before our very eyes.
Probably nothing like what he has in mind but hey ho. A good game anyway.😄

Nighty night night.


Anyhoo I think I might try an early night and see if sleep awaits me. So far any thoughts of resting the old eyes us eluding me but I must persevere.


Probably not in which case I'll be back later.

I can just imagine him voicing a wicked little critter for Disney!

Even though we're probably way off base, as you say it's a good game.

Must try to get some shut eye as I too tend to wake at odd hours.

Nightynight

Hello Whiffle

Gosh, you're efficient! Sorry, have got totally behind on the thread ( I am way back on about page 52), but I happened to spot your message.

I chose three because I thought the paso had to be one of the four......but if I can add another, I'd love the AT, please

Thanks a lot xx

Oh yes . Good pick Lindy. I've got a bit of brain freeze at the moment but I am sure there lots of peeps saying the Argentine Tango

Sorry for confusing people - this will explain! Watch and enjoy (hopefully)

Sorry but it is saying it is not available.

Would that be because it is my phone perhaps.

Oh I will try tomorrow (I mean later)

Off to me bed now .

Bye bye

Interesting tit bits from yesterday's interview -

1) Rehearsals for Big start end of summer (end August/September)
2) There could be a few changes to the score
3) They will be taking a slightly different direction with Josh than in the film - J's interpretation
4) He will be getting his voice into shape before then (sessions with vocal coach maybe?)
5) He turned the attention away from himself as always 'I want to hear Diana Vickers & DVO sing
6) We got one of the 'train' questions answered - he's veggie for ethical reasons.

So it looks very likely that Jay will be focussing on his vocals in the first instance. He'll have to schedule rehearsals in for KD during the summer (end July/beginning August) so that he has the dances down again before starting on rehearsals for Big. I doubt he'll have any prep to do for Fusion Fest. Plus a bit of publicity here and there. Wow. July's not far away - it's going to get exciting!

Btw- morning all. X

Hello Ahouch et al!

Yes, he's shortly going to be so busy. Isn't that right, J...

Thanks for noticing the radio interview . This was the happy J who turned up on ITT - have rather missed him. You are right, he's going to be very busy indeed and should be popping up all over the place - sometimes A might too .

Was pleased he answered the vegetarian question I was interested in - whether it was for ethical or environmental reasons. Wonder why he feels the need to apologise about it? It's not an unusual thing to be - unless there's something about the importance of square sausages?

Thought the answer to meeting the other members of TW was interesting - that he 'divides his time' between here and the USA - looks like he still intends to hop backwards and forwards when he can.

Wonder why J doesn't say on Twitter that he's going to do an interview or be on TV? It's a good job we have such excellent detectives on here.

We've up to 7,000 a day reading now at busy times - this thread must be one of the go-to places for news on J or on J and A


Thank you DD for posting the link to the radio interview, as the Podcast wouldn't work for me. (It won't let me multiquote again.)


Really sorry Whiffle that I've been naughty and chosen too many dances . I will cut it down.

I also want to post about some of the points fatskia raised about J and A dancing, but need more time than I have just now.

Thank you all for all the super reviews

Just reposting in case anyone needs it - while 'quoting' seems to be working.

Have clipped the bit where I suggested far too many dances for Keep Dancing so I don't get into trouble with Whiffle and hannah .

Oops! Ok Whiffle. My fourth choice is Cha Cha Cha. Jay, in an interview said not too look at it because it wasn't good [I thought it was pretty amazing for week 1]. Well, I think he would be great at the CCC now. It was close between the CCC & the AT, but I'm going for the CCC.

Thanks again.

Morning all
I have had to skim the last few pages to catch up but have enjoyed all the amnesty homeworks and reviews.

Thanks for the interview summary ahouch- thought it was very nice how he brought DV and DVO into the conversation. Pleased to hear that they are reworking the show a bit. He is so lovely about his mum and family. Great to hear some proper Jaylaughs too.

Hoping for a happy and harmonious day on the thread today.

Morning Hannah & Jelly L

I hope you both got some sleep. I read your discussion on future projects and would love to see him in West Side Story - but as Bernardo. Less singing but a lot more dancing. I think Jay would be great in that role.

Got to go. Have a good one everyone:

OT. Thought we could start the day mellow. So linking this:
By way of explanation. I have a list in my head of the planet's "cool" men and this guy is right up there. [of course Jay is up there too].

Ooh I could just see Jay leaping around the stage in West Side Story. One of my all time favourites. And as Sky Masterson in Guys and Dolls in a few years - another one of my absolute favourites. I've never seen West Side Story on stage but would love to. Saw Guys and Dolls some years back with Ewan McGregor as SM. V good.

Leaving a nice pic to start the day:

@1:37 - 2:06

Sums up J and how I feel about him and life in general at the moment
Love his sweet voice in this and toms rawness too ❤️

It's pouring with rain and dozy here misread the weather forecast last night and left sons t-shirts (that can't be tumble dried) on washing line because I thought it wasn't going to rain until this afternoon - they are now wetter than when I left them - oops

So, I know this has been posted before at some time but it makes me laugh on a rainy morning

Here's to a peaceful day

Good morning all

My day is gonna start like this.

We are getting more info from J
We are seeing nice things from A
And I'm really not trying to write an ode
It just grew and it flowed
So I'll just end it right now OK

Oh I do love this vid- the smart suit look, the casual 'homeless' look, the wet suit look...
I understand that the song wasn't a great hit for TW which surprised me. I really like it - but I suppose I am not the intended demographic!

Hannah - where do you find all these cute photos and gifs?

We saw West Side Story at the Mayflower in Southampton on our 50th wedding anniversary. It was brilliant. There is only one part for Jay in that - Tony!
